Chapter 335 Misunderstanding escalates
"Your Majesty, this..." Lian Qiao hesitated. She didn't know whether she should say it or not.
"Go ahead, I'll take care of Li Siqi's side." Xu Yingying knew Lian Qiao's concerns and directly pointed out that she knew the relationship between her and Li Siqi.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I dare not disobey the emperor's order." Lian Qiao naturally understood Xu Yingying's digression. A servant cannot serve two masters. Lian Qiao didn't know what kind of punishment she would face after Xu Yingying discovered her identity.
"You get up first. I know. Just tell me everything you know. I will take care of Li Siqi's matter myself." Xu Yingying was a little tired, but still wanted to figure out how she was discovered.
Lian Qiao closed her eyes, seeming to be still hesitating. Xu Yingying did not urge her, but just looked at Lian Qiao without blinking, waiting for her choice.
After a long while, Lian Qiao slowly said, "Last night, after the queen knocked me unconscious, I woke up after a long time. After waking up, I wanted to go out to look for the queen, but as soon as I left the palace, I saw the emperor. The emperor seemed to be attracted by the movement not far away, and then the emperor knew that the queen had left the palace."
Xu Yingying understood. It turned out to be just as she thought. However, why Li Siqi approached Fengyi Palace was a problem. However, looking at Lian Qiao's expression, she probably didn't know. Xu Yingying gave up the idea of getting any information from Lian Qiao and found a random excuse to send him away. She turned over and fell into a deep sleep again.
When she opened her eyes again, it was already the next morning. She had slept for so long that she wanted to get up and move around, but she had been lying in bed for too long. When she stood up, she felt her legs and feet had no strength and she almost fell to the ground. Although she supported herself with the small table beside the bed in time, she accidentally knocked the cup on it to the ground.
The cup fell to the ground with a crisp sound, which was quite loud. Lian Qiao who was outside the door could naturally hear it. She hurriedly pushed the door open and saw Xu Yingying trying to stand up by holding on to the table.
"Empress, Empress! Are you okay?" Lian Qiao was extremely anxious. She quickly ran forward to support Xu Yingying, helping her walk little by little, and then sat on the bed.
"Empress, your legs..." Lian Qiao's voice was trembling a little.
"I'm fine. Maybe it's because I lay down for too long yesterday and my legs and feet are a little out of control." Xu Yingying shook her head to indicate that she was fine.
"Your Majesty, please rest in bed for a while. I will go and get the imperial physician." After Lian Qiao said this, she ran outside.
Xu Yingying wanted to stop her, but Lian Qiao ran so fast that Xu Yingying couldn't catch up.
Not long after, Lian Qiao came running in with Wang Li, "Doctor Wang, please hurry up, the queen is still waiting for you."
Wang Li is old now, and he is being dragged around every other day, looking like he has lost all hope in life.
When they came in front of Xu Yingying, they both knelt down and saluted.
"Your Majesty, I have invited Doctor Wang. Please let Doctor Wang take a look." Lian Qiao's words were so sincere that Xu Yingying found it difficult to refuse.
Doctor Wang stepped forward and began to feel Xu Yingying's pulse. After a long time, he withdrew his hand and looked at Xu Yingying's legs. After a long time, Doctor Wang said, "From the pulse, the queen's body seems to be fine, but there is a problem with her legs and feet. I think it is caused by excessive fear. It is not serious. As long as the queen stays in bed and rests for a few days, she will be fine in a few days."
Xu Yingying nodded, "I understand. I'll trouble Doctor Wang. Lian Qiao, please send Doctor Wang out."
Lian Qiao wanted to say something, but when she met Xu Yingying's gaze, she tactfully shut her mouth and just left Fengyi Palace with Wang Li.
Xu Yingying did not deliberately keep her mouth shut. If she guessed correctly, Li Siqi definitely knew everything about Fengyi Palace, so it made no difference whether he concealed it or not.
A few more days passed, and Xu Yingying was still bedridden. She was not allowed to leave the bedroom in the first place, and now she could not go out due to her difficulty walking. Even Li Shen had to be brought to the bedroom by the wet nurse every day to spend some time with Xu Yingying, and then be taken back to his own room.
After a few days of rest, Xu Yingying felt that her legs and feet had improved a lot. With Lian Qiao's help, she was able to walk.
One day, Xu Yingying was walking back and forth in the bedroom when she heard a voice from outside announcing, "The Emperor has arrived!"
The next second, the door of the bedroom was pushed open, and Xu Yingying saw Li Siqi, whom she hadn't seen for many days.
Li Siqi seemed to be still the same. Xu Yingying couldn't understand what Li Siqi was thinking now. She just stood there, staring at her.
Lian Qiao wanted to kneel down and salute, but she still had to support Xu Yingying, and she was caught in a dilemma for a moment.
After a while, Xu Yingying shifted her gaze and said to Lian Qiao, "Help me to the bed. I'm tired." After that, Xu Yingying turned around and walked towards the bed, completely ignoring Li Siqi who came in.
Xu Yingying moved towards me step by step, but the next moment, she was lifted into the air and held horizontally. The strong smell of ambergris lingered around her nose. Smelling the familiar yet strange scent, Xu Yingying felt a pain in her nose and wanted to cry for some reason.
"Let's all go down." Li Siqi said in a low voice, then he carried Xu Yingying to the bed and put her down gently.
"What are you doing here?" Xu Yingying concealed the crying tone in her voice and said in a cold tone.
"I came to see you. Doctor Wang told me that your legs are not able to move very well." Li Siqi explained.
Hearing this, Xu Yingying sneered, "Doctor Wang is really thoughtful. There is nothing wrong with my leg. I'm sorry to trouble Your Majesty to make this trip." Xu Yingying spoke to Li Siqi with sarcasm and didn't want to give him a good look.
"Yingying, don't talk to me like that, okay?" There was a pleading look in Li Siqi's eyes. He held Xu Yingying's hand tightly and looked at Xu Yingying with wet eyes.
If it were in the past, Xu Yingying would have certainly compromised, but this time Li Siqi went too far and even imprisoned her.
Xu Yingying was furious when she saw Li Siqi like this. Based on the principle of enduring ovarian cysts for a while and taking a step back to deal with breast hyperplasia, Xu Yingying punched him without hesitation, "Li Siqi, who do you think I am? A toy that you can summon and dismiss at will?"
"Yes, I like you, but what about you now? Threatening me, imprisoning me, listing all the things you have done during this period, which one of them is unfair to you?!"
The more Xu Yingying spoke, the more aggrieved she felt. When she became emotional, her tears flowed uncontrollably.
"Li Siqi! Can you please let me leave here? I don't want to stay in Fengyi Palace anymore!" Xu Yingying broke down and cried, but Li Siqi pulled her forcefully into his arms.
"Yingying, I'm sorry. It's my fault. It's all my fault."
Li Siqi kept apologizing to Xu Yingying, but Xu Yingying was so emotional that she ignored the trembling in Li Siqi's voice.
"But, Yingying, please don't leave me. Please, promise me that you will never try to leave my side, okay? Please don't leave me. Please don't leave me..."
Li Siqi spoke intermittently, and the strength in his hands became stronger and stronger.
Xu Yingying also noticed Li Siqi's abnormal emotions. She forced herself to calm down, only to find that Li Siqi's body was abnormally cold, but his cold poison had long been cured. Xu Yingying also found that Li Siqi's mental state seemed to be a little abnormal.
She struggled subconsciously, but in return Li Siqi exerted even more force.
